Advices from st. Paul de Loanda state
that news has been received there from
Henry NJ. Stanley, under date of Septem-
Der s, to the effect that the expedition had
left the camp that he established, about
eight days journey from the Mabodi coun-
try, and was advancing towards the west
ern shore of Albert Nyanza. The men
were greatly fatigued, and struggled with
difficulty over a distance of several kilo-
meters. The most important chiefs of the
country through which the expedition had
travelled readily complied with Stanley s
request for food. Stanley halted for four
days to reorganiZe the expedition and

that the country TO the southwark of Al

TIE AMERICAS CUP.

The greatest nautical event of the year has
been the international yacht race at New
York, between Americas representative, the
sloop Volunteer, and Great Britain's cham
pion, the Scotch cutter Thistle. This last
contest for the Americas cup differs from
previous international contests. 1t was not
simply a race prompted by the enterprise
and pluck of an English yachtsman anxious
for the honor of retaining the Cup captured
by the American yacht in British waters
thirty-six years ago. 1t was a test of the
merits OF the American and English models
as represented by the best yacht ever yet
launched in English waters and the best
yacht ever built in America. 1t was con-
test between the two nations for the yachting
championship of the world.

out. She found the wagon standing in front
of the door and lying on the lumber was the
headless body of her husband. He had evil

In every city, after it has reached Ger
tain size, size considerable under that
which Los Angeles has attained, one par
ticular feature is always noticeable; name
ly, the center of the city becomes entirely
devoted to business and the residences are
gradually pushed out into the suburbs
and surrounding country, while one part
be comes "psr excellence" the fashionable
Quarter to reside in. We eau see this TAX
ing place to-day in Los Angeles and the ten
dency has not escaped the shrewd eyes of
the real estste agents and SPECTATORS On
all sides we see tracts outside the city limits
advertised for sale. Those which seem
best suited to attract people, and most
worthy of the speculators' attention, are sit
rated ON the main road between Ballona
Harbor and this city. One particularly would
probably repay the visitor richly-Arling-
ton Heights. This favored spot has been
taken in hand by a most enterprising com
pany and has already been divided up into
building lots, with fine wide streets, inter
secting at right angles and generally has a
business like look about it. With its bean
tiful view and healthy climate we do MOI
see how this spot can help becoming the
